[Discuss-gnuradio] Standalone USRP2

2009-02-13 Thread Yongsang Kim
We want to make several standalone transmitters which transmit OFDM signals synchronized with 1pps signal and external 10MHz closk using USRP2. We want to implement the transmitters using FPGA, while daughter board parameters and interpolation rate are fixed. We will transmit frames which

Hi, all, Can anyone tell me which function in Python could I use to generate a fixed length of 0s and 1s? I know in matlab we could just use randsrc(x, y, 0:1), while I've no idea how to implement it in Python. Thanks for ur help! ___ Discuss-gnuradio

Hi Gnuradio People, :-) I tried to get the UDP sink and UDP source to work. But it didn't work as it should. The FFT Plots only shows a white screen. The CPU of my Work PC is under 100% and my Server PC too. Should this be a Problem of threads ? I have a network traffic between the connected

Do you have any hints for me? Unless I am misunderstanding your diagram, I think you need something to slow down rate of the cosine source ([COS SOURCE]--/\--[UDP Sink 1]). If you connect it to a non-rate limited sink it will just pump out samples as fast as it can, hence your 100% CPU

The y per div is controlled by the dB/div radio buttons to the right of the fft plot. For the X axis, the max and min are set by the sample rate, and the number of tick marks are set by x_divs... the x_per_div setting is derived from this. See

Ok - so I have packets coming in from both USRP2's now, getting dumped to their separate files. My app prints out the timestamp of each frame that gets sent to the copy handler: if my 1PPS source is working properly, should the timestamps coming out of the two USRP2's be identical? Another

Couldn't you just tell the USRP's to start at a specific time to get them to start in sync? Rather than in real-time telling them to start immediately and having that lag. Tim --- Timothy R. Newman, Ph.D. Wireless @ Virginia Tech 447 Durham Hall

Hello Swapna, The SNR in wireless channel cannot be measured but it can be estimated. One way to do that for constant envelope modulation such as PSK is by measuring the variance in the received signal envelope. Ideally you should receive a constant stable envelope of your signal. However, due
